| Don't do it, unless you're very sure what it's going to
do. You are proposing to open up a network service on
the firewall, and you and I have never checked that it
is secure.
Why should anyone want NSR? Firewalls are a very very
static environment. Take a full vdump of every partition
every few months, and that's enough ...
In any case, unless you've got multiple disks, how do
you propose to restore from your NSR backup if you lose
the disk?
If you're concerned about logs, take a copy of them on to
an internal system, using the standard syslog mechanism.
Then back them up there ...

| Just so he doesn't feel like a voice crying in the wilderness, I'll second
Tony's answer.
I'd think really carefully about installing a product that's designed to suck
data off a system onto the network, especially one that (last time I looked)
used .rhosts as its security mechanism.
